The National Aerospace Development Administration, or NADA, showed off its new logo on state-run media, explaining it as a "symbol of a formal proof of the nature and mission" of the agency, according to the Rodong Sinmun.

The emblem of the NADA was recently instituted, which represents its character, mission, position and development prospects.

Seen in the lower part of the globe-shaped dark blue emblem are white-colored letters "Kukgaujugaebalkuk" (National Aerospace Development Administration) in Korean and in its upper part light blue-colored letters "DPRK" with the Great Bear above them. Printed in its middle are white-colored letters "NADA" in English.

Of course, there's no mention of the striking similarities between the NADA and NASA logos — both with blue globes, white lettering, and swooshed rings.

Furthermore, the acronym NADA is a bit of ironic commentary on the comparison between the two space agencies seeing as North Korea has only successfully launch one satellite — and experts have not picked up any signals from it.

NASA, on the other hand, put a man on the moon in 1969 and launched a series of revolutionary satellites that systematically photographed the surface of the Earth from space in 1972.
